Chapter 34: Chapter 34 Unending Pill Tribulation i

Translator: 549690339

Ning Qianqiu’s face was full of confusion, and so were Shentu Feng and the others.

However, the expressions of the people from Heavenly Mechanism Sect were filled with anticipation and pride, with no trace of confusion. They knew that this was the necessary path for an Emperor Grade Spirit Pill to appear in the world.

“It seems that the people from Heavenly Mechanism Sect have no doubts, perhaps it should be like this!” Shentu Feng silently observed Mu Xingzhi and the others, coming to such a conclusion.

Then, the second and third Tribulation Thunders fell.

When the third Tribulation Thunder dissipated, there were only twenty or thirty Fusion Dao Pills left floating above the Pill Tripod.

But as Pill Masters, the Pill Sect members could clearly sense that an incredibly rich Pill Qi had gathered above the Pill Tripod.

And as the Tribulation Thunder vanished, that Pill Qi was actually rushing towards the remaining Fusion Dao Pills, especially the two Emperor Grade ones, which absorbed the most!

The two Emperor Grade Fusion Dao Pills gradually emanated colorful lights, and only when the enveloping Pill Qi was entirely absorbed did their lights start to converge.

After completely converging, the two Fusion Dao Pills were enveloped in a cloud of Pill Qi, turning into genuine Emperor Grade Fusion Dao Pills!

“So that’s how it is!”

All the members of the Pill Sect were Pill Masters of no low skill, and with such a scene before them, they of course understood—this is how an Emperor Grade Spirit Pill was made!

By utilizing the Pill Tribulation, an Emperor Grade advances from King Grade!

Watching Ling Xi take away all the Pills, the members of the Pill Sect let out a relieved sigh.

Even though they did not witness Li Cheng’s specific pill concoction process, this observation session made them understand how Emperor Grade Pills came to be.

“It is difficult! Even though we now know that Emperor Grade Pills come from a Pill Tribulation, to attract a Pill Tribulation, one must first concoct Emperor Grade Pills… that is challenging!” said a Pill Sect Elder with a deep sigh and a wry smile.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Shentu Feng said, “If we observe carefully several more times, even if we can’t concoct Emperor Grade Pills ourselves, at least we can greatly improve our proficiency in the Alchemy Dao. We may not have such an opportunity in the future.”

Li Cheng had already begun concocting the Unifying Pill.

Another incense stick’s time passed, and the Pill Tribulation for the Unifying Pill arrived!

This time, similarly, two Emperor Grade Pills faced the Tribulation, but one was destroyed by it, leaving only one to ascend to Emperor Grade.

Next came the Tribulation Crossing Pill!

Again, after the time it takes an incense stick to burn, watching over a thousand supreme quality, more than a dozen King Grade, and two Emperor Grade Pills fly out from the Pill Tripod, the members of the Pill Sect felt their faces burning with heat!

A few days ago, they had offered fifteen Tribulation Crossing Pills in exchange for an Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan.

They even said that fifteen Tribulation Crossing Pills were an “astronomical price”!

And what they could offer were only of the lower grade.

But at this moment, what did they see?

Over a thousand Tribulation Crossing Pills of at least supreme quality!

What is “cabbage”?

Only now did they understand that when Li Cheng said the Tribulation Crossing Pill was like cabbage to him, he wasn’t exaggerating at all—in fact, he might have even understated it.

With just a casual production, he was making supreme quality Tribulation Crossing Pills, so lower grade ones in his eyes were more than just cabbage, they were basically trash!

The exchange method they had proposed turned out to be like giving handouts to a beggar, no wonder he was angry.

Ning Qianqiu’s face flushed with embarrassment as he shifted his gaze to Shentu Feng and the others, noticing that their faces were also beet red.

Clearing his throat, Ning Qianqiu changed the subject, “That…I seem to have figured out a little trick.”

Everyone regained their composure and quickly returned to normal, turning their attention to Ning Qianqiu.

Ning Qianqiu said, “To concoct Emperor Grade Pills, one must start with at least fifty sets of materials, because Elder Li uses a hundred sets and only gets two Emperor Grade Pills, so to get one, you need to start with fifty.”

The crowd stared at Ning Qianqiu in astonishment, their eyes plainly saying: How clever of you!

“Such a simple arithmetic problem, and you’re asking me?”

“But is it really as simple as an arithmetic problem?”

“Surely, there are issues related to the compatibility of materials, changes in medicinal properties, and so on. How could it be as simple as Ning Qianqiu says?”

“Of course, the most critical issue is, they’re hardly successful in refining ten batches of materials at once, let alone fifty or a hundred batches?”

“Even if they could succeed, who could guarantee that all would have top-notch quality as a base?”

“So, Shentu Feng and the others were very clear—they couldn’t learn it!”

“They tried hard, but the harder they tried, the more they realized how incompetent they were.”

“Without trying hard, they wouldn’t have even realized it.”

“Suddenly, the Pill Sect’s people’s mood turned gloomy. They were a super sect known throughout the Southern Domain for their Pill Skill, and what they were most proud of turned out to be their biggest weakness.”

“Soon the Pill Tribulation passed, and two Emperor Grade Tribulation Crossing Pills were brought into existence.”

“However, such an outcome couldn’t reverse the gloomy mood of the Pill Sect’s people. Instead, it made them feel even more worthless!”

“A hundred batches of Responding to Calamity Pill materials were placed into the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod; Li Cheng had already begun the alchemy process. The people of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect were excited, but the Pill Sect…”

“Mu Xingzhi noticed the anomaly among the Pill Sect’s members and quickly understood upon reflection, sighing inwardly.”

“Being struck to the core in their area of expertise, the Dao hearts of the Pill Sect’s members were already unstable.”

“Normally, an outsider’s unstable Dao heart is none of their own concern.”

“But as the Sect Master, Mu Xingzhi had to consider the future of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and couldn’t just sit by and watch.”

“After all, there would be many dealings with the Pill Sect in the future; business interactions were indispensable, and they couldn’t just watch as these high-level members were wasted.”

“With that thought, Mu Xingzhi transmitted his voice: “Gentlemen, my little uncle has a unique talent and has experienced enlightenment in Alchemy Dao, which is why his Pill Skill is unparalleled.”

“A simple reminder immediately brought the Pill Sect’s people back to their senses.”

“They were all at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage of cultivation and soon stabilized their Dao hearts, but even so, they were all thoroughly shaken and sweating profusely!”

“If the reminder had come any later and their Dao hearts had collapsed, they would have been utterly ruined!”

“They all exhaled a long breath of relief and, in unison, made a fist and palm salute toward Mu Xingzhi. Shentu Feng transmitted his voice: “Thank you, Sect Master Mu. Our two sects must have more interactions in the future!”

“Mu Xingzhi returned the gesture with a smile. With this statement, even if his little uncle ascended one day, the Pill Sect would increase business interactions with the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, ensuring peace for many years to come!”

“Any power would want more dealings with the Pill Sect, but few, if any, could actually be taken seriously and regarded as important by the Pill Sect.”

“Now, however, it was different. The Heavenly Mechanism Sect would certainly be one of them!”

“Composing themselves, the Pill Sect’s people looked back towards the center. From within the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod, came the sound of Pills moving about, indicating that the Responding to Calamity Pills were about to emerge!”

“This time, the Pill Sect’s people managed to maintain their composure, smiling as they watched the Pill Tribulation.”

“”Elder Li’s alchemy is actually refining our hearts. This trip was so worth it!” Shentu Feng said with a laugh.

“Everyone nodded in agreement, indeed it was so. Having passed that earlier trial, their Dao hearts were even more solid, which would be greatly beneficial for their future cultivation.”

“The Pill Tribulation descended, and Li Cheng looked calm, only occasionally glancing over at Ling Xi.”

“It was not because Ling Xi was so beautiful that he couldn’t help but take several looks, but since the start of the Unifying Pill refinement, Li Cheng had noticed that this girl was observing with her heart, seemingly benefiting a great deal.”

“However, without any prompt yet, Li Cheng didn’t know what she had comprehended.”

“But at this moment, Ling Xi was surrounded by peculiar fluctuations. Others, who were further away, might not be able to sense it, but Li Cheng was only a few steps away from her and felt it very clearly.”

“Those peculiar fluctuations, they were somewhat like… a Pill Tripod!”

“Just as this thought appeared, a prompt indeed sounded in Li Cheng’s mind!”
